I tried the bat file but I am still getting the same problem.  I will wait for the Java version  ;)
#2
What bat files are you talking about? Maybe I installed the wrong zip file?

Hello,
I am getting ready to update my NE topo map. Anything new with the topo process? I just installed it on a Windows 7 machine and still get the missing Msinet.ocx?
Thanks.

it creates some bat files to do stuff...

I am getting ready to start java programming of it because I hate getting vb to work on windows 7.

Let me know if you need help to get started.

Welcome back!

At work we use NetBeans as a development environment (www.NetBeans.org). You probably want Java SE, but you can download everything if you want to use it for PHP and Web stuff.

You can also look at Eclipse (www.eclipse.org). It is very similar to NetBeans.

Both are equally good.

Hi Oz,

Were you out of touch for a while? If you want to rewrite it and are ready to learn something new then I suggest Java. Python is fine by me, but if you do it in Java, I will help you.

This is really frustrating. This is not solving the problem, but I may not have installed it correctly.
I hate Vista! Why don't you develop in Java instead  ;)

What is the latest version of topo_proces? I just installed 1.0.19 on my Vista machine and I am getting the 339 error but I have not been able to fix that yet. I am going through this thread now.

---------------------------
download_process
---------------------------
Run-time error '339':

Component 'MSINET.OCX' or one of its dependencies not correctly registered: a file is missing or invalid
---------------------------
OK   
---------------------------

Running VBRun does not seem to fix the problem.

I am getting ready to upgrade the New England topo map.

I agree we need to vary the contours within the US and even within a state. The coastal area of Maine is pretty flat but when you move West and North West it becomes steeper.

Yes, I will try 0.5x0.5 in my next run. I agree there is something that grows exponentially in cgpsmapper.

I am using a 2.2 GHz, with 1 GB of RAM. This is a computer I bought from my former company. We used it to run computer chip simulation (those are *huge* programs). This is why when I see cgpsmapper taking 24 hours of CPU to process a single img, I think there must be a gross inefficiency somewhere.

I am certainly due for an upgrade!

I do not know how you get 49 img/day. When I did my maps, a single img could take almost a day of cpu. My img are 0.5x1.
Is there any tricks to make cgpsmapper run faster, beside upgrading my computers?

The entire process for the New England topo map was not too bad except for cgpsmapper. It took 2 weeks of a reasonably good computer running 100% of the time just to do cgpsmapper.

If I had access to a Linux cluster (16 boxes) maybe these 2 weeks could have been 1 or 2 days but that still leaves us with more than 1 month of the Linux cluster to do the entire map.

Is there a way around cgpsmapper. Maybe we should start an Open Source project to develop a faster version of cgpsmapper.

I have already done the Northeast (MA, NH, VT, ME) in one single map . I am sure we can come up with a 48 state solution. Just need a lot of CPU power!

I am not a mac expert and I am not sure how it should be distributed on the mac. The .exe file is a windows installer.

Oz, do you have a tutorial on how to build a mac version? I can build a tar/zip but what else has to be done?
